Moton IIhttp://www.trulia.com/profile/gregory-s-moton-ii-broker-upper-darby-pa-4839119/http://www.trulia.com/profile/gregory-s-moton-ii-broker-upper-darby-pa-4839119/Ms. Olivares, If you are looking for a home in the Overbrook section. I currently have listed a beautiful 3 story 6 bedroom 2 bath home for sale. The home has been completely renovated and is in move in condition. I have lived in overbrook since 1998 and I love the area. You are close to city avenue and a hop, skip and a jump to pretty much anywhere. Please give me a call or an email to discuss the area or my listing.

There is Overbrook Farms, Overbrook Park, and Overbrook. Pricing will depend on what area, and weather you will be buying a Townhome, or a Single as well as the number of bedrooms and/or bathrooms.
I have a very nice listing currently on the market in Overbrook Farms. This area is close the City Avenue Corridor with very nice restaurants and shopping. Also it is close to St Joe's University and the train to center city. I have sold several home in the area and I would be more than happy to help you fine a nice home.
Thanks,
Leslie Russell

Most of the responders on forums such as this are licensed real estate professionals such as myself, who are prohibited from giving you the answers you seek due to Pennsylvania's Fair Housing Statutes.
There are plenty of spots on the web to check out information such as local school ratings, crime rates, etc. that we are prohibited from discussing.
